Bid means a price you are willing to receive for completion of a specific order. When you place a bid on order, it means, that you read carefully the requirements and are ready to complete the order at this price. Many writers may bid on the same order and a client chooses which writer he/she would like to complete the order.
You are the one to choose how much you are willing to get paid for specific order, so there is no standard solution. Usually, the bid greatly depends on the type of writing, subject, and deadline.
If you cannot decide, which price is appropriate for a particular order due to lack of information, you can contact a client and ask for details. Set initial price and discuss it with a client directly.
You see the orders depending on the subjects and citation types you are proficient in. If you see no active orders, it may mean that at the moment there are no orders on your subjects.
Usually, all the required information, like subject, topic, number of pages and other additional information, is visible on the order's profile. If you need any other information or clarifications, you may ask a client to provide them.
In this case, please, contact our support team as soon as possible.
The best solution will be to explain the issue to the client, asking him/her to add the required sum to his/her account, after which it will be transferred to your account.
If the client doesn't wish to pay extra, and the work isn't done yet, the order will be cancelled.
If the work is done according to the initial requirements, but the client requires some changes, the case will be examined by our Dispute Manager.
Please, note, that you may be fined in case you didn't pay enough attention to the requirements and ask the client for additional payment because of this.
If a client isn't satisfied with your work in any way, he/she may file a dispute. Any dispute will be thoroughly examined by our Dispute Manager; and depending on the dispute result you may be asked to adjust the paper.
Every dispute is thoroughly examined by our Dispute Manager and depending on the reasons of dispute, there are four possible scenarios:
- you may be asked to adjust the paper according to client's requirements; if a client accepts new version, you are paid in full;
- if the adjusted paper is not what the client expected to receive, you may be given partial refund (it depends on the initial requirements and how you stick to them);
- you've completed all the requirements, and a client doesn't provide any additional information on why the order is disputed; in this case you are fully paid;
- if a client provides proof of paper's low quality, or you've missed the deadline, the client receives full refund for this order and you are not paid for it.
Before bidding on the order, you should make sure that you'll be able to deliver the paper before deadline.
If, for some reason, you couldn't cope with the task within the required time frames, you should ask a client to extend the deadline. If a client agrees to extend the deadline, you'll be fully paid.
If the client doesn't want to extend the deadline, but afterwards accepts your paper, you'll be fined, based on the time expired.
If a client cancels the order because of missed deadline, you won't receive payment for the order; moreover, you are to pay the 20% fine.
You should contact our support team as soon as possible, explaining the reasons. Also, we strongly advise to apologize to a client and explain the situation.
Please, note, that a fine may be applied to you.
You may ask a client to change the price after new requirements were discovered. Please, note, that you should ask a client to increase/decrease the price by percents, not specific amount.
Also, we highly discourage writers to bid the minimum amount in order to get client's attention, and then increasing the bid, after the order was assigned to them. Such behavior may result in your account discard.
You are considered chosen for the order after the client has successfully completed the payment. You'll receive a message in your account about the payment. Also, email will be sent to you.
The order you've been chosen for will appear in the In Progress tab of your orders.
Once the payment is received, the order has «Confirmation pending» status, and you are to confirm the order by clicking on the Confirm button on the order.
It's a client who decides on the writer for an order.
To increase your chances to be assigned on an order, we suggest following the next simple recommendations:
Revise your approach. Imagine what kind of apply you would be interested in if you were a client. Make sure your application stands out. Think of an interesting and persuasive apply message.
Show your skills and expertise. You can send a sample of your previous work on a different topic to make the client feel you are well qualified for the job (please remember not to send any answers before you’re approved for an order).
Be concrete. Don't overcomplicate. Make your apply brief, but persuasive.
Ask questions. If a client didn’t include enough informant on paper requirements in the order description, feel free to ask for more details. Assess the level of task complexity and the time you would need to complete it within the deadline to place your bid.
Please keep in mind that according to Masterra Writers Terms of Service you’re not allowed to negotiate the price in USD equivalent. You can use percentage increase/deduction if you need to discuss the bid.
Always be polite. Use high language when speaking to a client.
Work for positive reviews. Do your best to provide the best result possible, so that your client would be willing to work with you on his/her next order, and leaves a good review for other clients to see.
No, it's up to the client to decide which writer he/she would like to work with. We may give only recommendations in case a client asks for advice.
It depends solely on the order and its requirements. You should stick to citation type, number of pages, font size, spacing etc, mentioned by a client in the requirements.
However, unless otherwise specified in the order, we expect the order to be in the following format:
- Word document;
- 12-point Times New Roman;
- Double-spaced;
- 300 words per page.
You have to submit an order anytime before deadline. If you submit completed paper after the deadline, you'll be fined.
In some cases you may be given deadline extension or asked to adjust the paper; in such situations, you'll be fully paid.
If the work doesn't completely meet the requirements, it wasn't delivered within required time frames and client decides to cancel the order, or if we find that the paper is plagiarized, you will not be paid; and in case of recurring problems with orders delivering your account may be discarded.
When you are ready to provide the final version of your work, you should simply upload the file to the chat with a client, and click on the Solved check-box.
Please, contact our support team as soon as possible after you noticed this. We'll examine the case. Usually, no fine will be applied.
